Chapter 699: Feeling sorry for a man who is unlucky for a lifetime
Shen Zhinian's first feeling was that Nangong Xuanyu was a little weird.
As an emperor, it is normal for him to have three palaces and six courtyards.
One cannot want everything. Shen Zhinian wanted status and power, but never thought of monopolizing the emperor's favor.
She had no interest in monopolizing Nangong Xuanyu.
I have never seen this man keep his chastity for anyone before. He is just like a normal emperor, flipping through the names of different concubines every now and then.
Why did he have such a big reaction today when she was just advising Nangong Xuanyu to favor Chun Changzai?
Can the emperor be so pretentious?
Neither of them spoke again, and the atmosphere was deadlocked for a moment.
With Shen Zhinian's means, he could deceive Nangong Xuanyu with words and cover up the matter perfectly.
But she suddenly didn't want to do that anymore.
Because Shen Zhinian had already understood that she couldn't pretend in front of Nangong Xuanyu for her whole life.
These days, intentionally or unintentionally, she slowly showed her true side.
Nangong Xuanyu gradually realized in his heart that she was not as kind as she seemed, and accepted these things.
So now...is it time to do something big?
After all, she was tired of pretending and coaxing...
Moreover, her relationship with Nangong Xuanyu was gradually returning to a calm state. If she provoked this man severely at this time, wouldn't it be able to stir up new waves and ripples in his heart?
Shen Zhinian was not afraid of Nangong Xuanyu getting angry, because she could always grasp the right balance and make things go round.
I'm afraid that with the passage of time, everything between her and Nangong Xuanyu will become dull and boring.
Thinking of this, Shen Zhinian pretended not to understand, looked at Nangong Xuanyu and blinked, and asked in confusion: "I wonder why your majesty sent Xiao Huizi to summon me to the Imperial Garden so late at night?"
Nangong Xuanyu just stared at Shen Zhinian's charming face with his thin lips tightly pursed.
He thought that she understood his feelings for her.
So this woman must know why he is unhappy today.
But at this moment, he didn't see any understanding on Nian Nian's face.
So...she really doesn't know the reason?
If she really loved him and really cared about him, would she react like this?
The more the emperor thought about it, the more he felt a surge of anger in his heart!
But unfortunately, he couldn't get angry with Shen Zhinian.
Because as Li Changde said, Concubine Chen did nothing wrong. On the contrary, as the head of the harem, she was very virtuous.
As an emperor, he had no position or reason to blame him.
The emperor's pride prevented Nangong Xuanyu from speaking out his true thoughts.
He couldn't ask Shen Zhinian if she wouldn't be sad or upset at all if he favored Chun Changzai?
In this case, wouldn't his face be completely shattered?
Nangong Xuanyu was still unwilling to give in and tried to see any strange expression on Shen Zhinian's face.
He stared at her and asked word by word, "I heard from the eunuch in the Jingshifang that you gave them some advice today?"
As long as Nian Nian said, she did this to fulfill her duties as the head of the harem and to shut up the gossips, and she didn't really want to push Chun Changzai to his side.
He forgave her and was no longer angry...
However, who knows... Although Shen Zhinian's charming face flashed with sadness, loss and entanglement, she finally said: "Your Majesty, that's right."
"Every concubine in the harem has the duty to serve the emperor. Chun Changzai is a concubine and has been in the palace for nearly three months. She has not yet slept with the emperor. This is really against the rules."
"That's why I asked the eunuchs in the Jingshifang to put her green card in front today."
"Your Majesty, did you ask me to come here just to ask about this?"
Nangong Xuanyu slowly closed his eyes, the last hope in his heart shattered...
As an emperor, it is his innate duty to favor concubines, produce offspring, and continue the country's prosperity.
This meant that Nangong Xuanyu could not be a pure and innocent person. He himself could not remember how many women he had favored in his life.
If Jiang Shuren or other high-ranking concubines had raised this matter in the past, Nangong Xuanyu would have agreed with their ideas.
It's just favoring a new concubine in the palace, it's not a big deal.
If the other person suits his taste, he will pamper him for a while longer; if not, he will forget about him in an instant.
If he needs to balance the court or consider other matters, he will also weigh the pros and cons.
Chun Changzai is the most beautiful woman in the Western Regions, and her appearance is naturally beyond words.
Her face was charming and her facial features were very three-dimensional, with a hint of exotic charm. She was truly unique in the harem.
In the past, Shen Zhinian didn't need to send someone to remind her. When Chun Changzai learned the rules, Nangong Xuanyu would turn over her card.
However... in terms of appearance, Shen Zhinian may not be the best in the harem, but her charming temperament is incomparable to anyone.
What a pity... Chun Changzai has the same type as her.
With the naturally charming Nian Nian Zhuyu in front of him, how could he still be interested in Chun Changzai?
After a while, I forgot about him until today...
Nangong Xuanyu didn't feel relieved at all when hearing such sensible words coming from Nian Nian's mouth. He couldn't even control the pain that welled up in his heart...
It turns out that this is what it feels like to be pushed towards someone else by the woman you love...
"Good! Good!"
Nangong Xuanyu laughed in anger, saying "good" twice in a row, with a broken light in his starry eyes, and said coldly: "I didn't know before that Concubine Chen is so virtuous!"
"In that case, I will do as you wish!"
After he finished speaking, Nangong Xuanyu walked away.
Even though Nangong Xuanyu was obviously angry and hurt, Shen Zhinian's tone remained calm as she saluted: "Your Majesty, I respectfully send you off!"
Angry?
Heartache?
Sad?
now it's right!
Shen Zhinian wanted to make Nangong Xuanyu's emotions fall to the bottom, and then find a way to make him happy and feel the peak of pleasure!
Only by having this kind of give and take can you keep his emotions firmly under your control, making him fall for her and unable to extricate himself from her!
Instead of blindly obeying him, giving in to him and coaxing him.
Shen Zhinian would never feel pity for Nangong Xuanyu.
He has three palaces and six courtyards. As long as he wants, any beauty in the world belongs to him.
If this is still pitiful, then are there any people in the world who are not pitiful?
Nangong Xuanyu favors this one today and that one tomorrow, but why is it like asking him to favor Chun Changzai for a moment is like asking for his life? Hypocritical!
I feel sorry for the man who will be unlucky for the rest of his life.
Li Changde and Xiao Huizi both thought that the unpleasantness between His Majesty and Concubine Chen would disappear completely after they met.
Those who serve closely will also have an easier life.
Unexpectedly... He was just thinking happily when he saw His Majesty walking out of the Imperial Garden angrily.
